AAA does it right!

August 12, 2025

AAA made their course and modules engaging, it made me want to watch and follow along. They did not include unnecessary, “filler” information that made the modules boring and unnecessarily long. The quiz at the end was quick and straight to the point. I would recommend them to anybody needing to get their food handler’s certificate.
